Eat More — Telegram bot that helps you eat more. 🍩πŸ’ͺ

“ Eat More is a bot for Telegram that helps you eat more. You create a visual food diary by logging every meal. Just snap a picture and add an optional caption. The bot will remind you if you haven’t eaten in a while. πŸ€” Why? I often forget to eat. I mean, I won’t starve to death or anything, but I eat less than I should. I was talking to @jelmerdeboer the other day about working out and if he had any recommendations for me to get bigger. He gave the in hindsight obvious advice: eat more. While it’s very actionable advice, it does require a long-term behavior change so it’s not something I can do “right now”. I need to do it multiple times a day, every day. In other words I need to form a habit. Keeping a food diary is a great way to form a that habit, as it provides you with insights in how often and how much I eat. While I’m sure there are plenty of apps out there that help me track my meals, I like the flexibility and challenge of building my own solution. I’m in Telegram 24/7 so I figured a bot would be a good approach. The bot you see now is the result of a quick hackathon while I was waiting for my food (two delicious burritos) to be delivered. πŸ’° What’s the revenue model? It’s free to use. There is no revenue model. It’s a hobby project. Not a business. 🍩 Why all the donuts? Looks cool. 😲 You should add X! Maybe I will. Maybe I won’t. This bot is just a quick side project. I will probably only add features I need myself. ”
